emailed a few small business premises up today,    asking if ok for me to carry on .
Sorry but no outside contractors allowed  to work on site.      Small businesses where I don't even see anyone on site

I thought I could get some cash in

Must be hard for lads who have a lot of commercial.

I don't have any, never had any interest in it.

My office work is shut down , managed blocks of flats have a green light at the moment.
Residential I'm able to do 75% today.
Bigger shutdown soon i think.
I'm working in Zombie town.
A lot safer than walkers that are about with kids and stuff, closest I've got to anyone is about 10 metres, feels safe what I'm doing but of course not 100%
Taking it day by day working on my own, not got a casual attitude like those that say I've seen bad stuff in my life and I'm carrying on regardless.
Everything is shot to bits, normality is a way off yet :o

We do a large Hannover Court job; it's jam-packed with elderly high risk types.

They still want us to carry on, just not do the inside areas we do.

I never liked doing those bits anyway.

You can travel to work if you cannot work from home.

There's no restrictions on travel otherwise.

I know a window cleaner that works in South Korea. He can't get into the capital and he's a Seoul trader.
And it's the same for one I know in Vietnam and it's starting to Hanoi him.
It's Laos-y for them too.

If the police were to stop me working I would politely ask for his badge number and and ticket or note telling me not to work and what law I was breaking so I have proof when it comes to HMRC paying out in June.

Then I would go home and sit on my arse and not go back out :D :D

With respect they arnt intrested a friend of mine was threatened with a fine/arrest on Thursday afternoon , he has spoken the the local crime commissioner and made a formal complaint , the reply he has been given is we are in a state of national emergency don’t be so selfish we have far more important things than worrying about than your complaint . Stay at home in bold type !,, things are being done totaly different all over the country , but it’s working down hear as only 57 cases and 7 deaths

I agree, Splash.
I'm not fat enough to get in the police but if I was some young copper, or an old one counting down the days to my retirement, and I pulled up a window cleaner that said he had a letter from Boris Johnson saying that he could work, I'd taser him and then break his pole.

And that would cost the government a lot more than £ 7500 in compensation

Us fictional coppers don't worry about that when confronted by lippy window cleaners.
